"Something has got to be done at this time. I don't want to speculate on what should happen, because it's the state's call on that," he said.

No one was hurt when the bullet pierce a wall in the Luurtsema home on Port Sheldon Street, but police have logged a couple other instances of bullets hitting structures in the recent past.

Ottawa County sheriff's Lt. Mark Bennett said the stray bullet was fired about 7:40 p.m. by a Holland Township man in his 20s. He was trying to sight-in the gun and fired at a water-filled area in the game area.

Bennett plans to forward a report on the incident to Ottawa County prosecutors.

"I don't really expect any charges," he said.

However, he said one potential charge could be for careless discharge of a firearm.

Bennett said the power of the Russian rifle is similar to an M16 rifle or AR15.

"We don't feel he was aiming at the house specifically. In fact, you're not able to even see the house from the area where he was shooting from," he said.

Bennett said he did not believe any homes had been hit by bullets before, but was aware of outbuilding that was struck.
